to several La Grande people in an

"The principal purpose of this con
vention Is to consider Questions of
legislation -neceeBary to carry forr
ward the Good Roads movement In a
practical way. It will be necessary to
have some legislation to make the
Constitutional . Amendment effective
and enable the people of a county to
take advantage of the privilege grant
ed by the amendment i; -; V
"In -addition to that there should
be legislation providing for some
Iviu atMitt uii. juBt wnat . form of
such aid should be adopted will ,! be
one or the important matters to be
considered. There should also be leg
islation providing for the appointment
of a State Highway Commission, de
fining the duties of such commission,
etc., and this . is a matter of much
Importance. Then there are the con
vict labor bills which are to be gone
over and also other matters of road
legislation that may be suggested.
"On the whole this will be a very
Important meeting, and one which will
be of great Importance to the state
at large. It Is hoped that you may be
able to attend, and that you will give
the matter such publicity as the Im
portance of the Bubject and the cir
cumstances seem to suggest."
